Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) is a focal point of the inflammatory cascade in Crohn's disease (CD). As an emerging approach to block cytokines, antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) has developed quickly, but is thwarted by a key obstacle-safe and effective delivery to specified cells. Here a novel nano-complex, based on galactosylated low molecular weight chitosan (gal-LMWC) and an ASO against TNFalpha, is presented which may be effective for CD treatment. The aim of this study was to investigate the targeting delivery ability of the gal-LMWC/ASO complex into activated macrophages and its potential therapeutic action in experimental colitis.
